ATTENTION ARTS ORGANIZATIONS...

Upcoming Arts Funding Deadline! A reminder that deadline for our annual
arts funding process is upcoming...applications must be in the OCA by
5:00 p.m. on Friday, May 2. This is not a postmark deadline -- if you
mail your application, allow additional time for the city’s mail room
to process items after the Post Office does so. Late applications cannot
be considered.

Printing Your Arts Funding Application...Almost every year we get at
least one frantic call the day that arts funding applications are due. 
Since every computer and printer set-up is potentially different (and
since we are not computer experts!), we are generally unable to assist
callers. Please note that there is a link on the arts funding section of
our web site that provides resources for trouble-shooting printer
problems, www.GoColumbiaMo.com (GoWord: GoArtsFunding). You are strongly
encouraged to access the online funding form and print it well in
advance of the deadline to confirm that your computer set-up works
successfully with it.

Columbia Festival of the Arts...Applications for the visual, performing
and literary components of the Festival must be postmarked by April 21.
Contact the OCA for a form, 573-874-6386, festival at GoColumbiaMo.com or
access it online at www.GoColumbiaMo.com (Go Word: GoArtsFestival).
Information about arts organization booths was sent mid March; if you
are interested in reserving one, call or email.
